e6d57e9ff0ae ("netfilter: conntrack: fix rmmod double-free race")
consolidates IPS_CONFIRMED bit set in nf_conntrack_hash_check_insert().
However, this breaks ctnetlink:
# conntrack -I -p tcp --timeout 123 --src 1.2.3.4 --dst 5.6.7.8 --state ESTABLISHED --sport 1 --dport 4 -u SEEN_REPLY
conntrack v1.4.6 (conntrack-tools): Operation failed: Device or resource busy
This is a partial revert of the aforementioned commit to restore
IPS_CONFIRMED.
